What is the simplest foam plans that you have built or you know of on the net ?

I am guessing a flat sheet with a tail and dual elevons at the back would fit the description.

Please point to sources/plans.

hi anwar

if you are asking this question from newbie point of view then there are lots of plans available on the net and most of the material used to build these plane is available in India but the most important of all is the cost of electronics that put off people from going via diy stuff.

I guess I am looking for minimum amount of cutting and gluing (minimum amount of foam parts). 

Yes, there are tons of plans, but many are too complicated, with many many parts of to cut out. 

I guess I am looking for one that looks like an RC Kite.

Of course a flying wing is another option; but they have to be pretty big to work OK.

Hi Anwar,

I was looking for some plans myself and i came across these websites..

hope this helps ?

Dear Anwar,
i made my RC flying carpet with least complexity and ease of reparing also. it resembles RC kite. pls have a look at it and comment. if it suits the criteria for simplest foam plans, i may also create a plan of my model and post it here. http://www.rcindia.org/self-designed-diy-and-college-projects/rc-flying-carpet-)/msg4504/?topicseen#msg4504

From the links posted by Atul, here is one that seems to fit what I was looking for.

The simples will be a coro plane called Mugi:

This requires folding the Coro like a paper plane we used to do in school.

This can be adapted to 4 mm bio foam by beveling the  ends of the top and bottom sheet of the leading edge and sticking with tape.

This site has some neat indoor and outdoor plane designs. I recently got a stack of foam plates that I intend to use for these builds - http://www.flyelectric.ukgateway.net/indoor.htm
